During the [[Resurgence]] in 365 MA, the ancient plane of [[Dendara]] was healed of its latent corruption by the | |||
sacrifice of [[Lleis]], Goddess of Renewal. This act intersected the two planes, with essence of Dendara spreading | |||
out to the [[prime material plane]] in locations where its link was strongest - the Great Oak of [[Duiran]], and the | |||
[[Vintal Glade]]. | |||
Shortly afterward, these locations were flooded with the emergence of many fae creatures from Dendara - faun, | |||
wisps, and other spectral beings. Included among these immigrants were the impressive race of '''centaurs''', who | |||
were not of fae origin but were mortal beings with humanoid lifespans and needs. | |||
Servants of the Wild from Dendara, the centaur are a powerful, intelligent, and noble race of half-men, half | |||
-horse people, with only a fraction of their population venturing out to explore [[Sapience]] and sample its | |||
culture. Little is known of their homeland save for that it is described as among the oldest places of the | |||
world - the ancient, primordial forests. | |||
With both speed and strength afforded to them by their equine lower halves, they make excellent soldiers, with | |||
many of their kind enlisting in the armies of the Heartwood. The centaur are rarely seen outside of the | |||
[[Ithmias]], for despite being a bold and inquisitive race, they are still understandably wary of Sapience as a | |||
whole. | |||
For all of their eagerness to explore the continent, they are notoriously private about their own culture and | |||
homeland. The centaur scholars are highly-regarded within their societies, and are often difficult to find on | |||
Sapience due to the protective nature of their warrior kin. | |||
